THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

Frank Kresler reports that his supply of ice will last only about a month longer, possible not that long and that after that time we will have to use shipped in manufactured ice. He had his three houses all filled except about two tiers in one house.

Clayton, member of congress from the third district of Alabama, was named by Governor O’Neal late Tuesday afternoon as United States senator to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Joseph F. Johnston. Representative Clayton is chairman of the house judiciary committee and has served sixteen years in congress. The band concert last evening was certainly a fine one and the fine music was the cause of a great amount of comment. The boys have certainly given us the best band we have had in many years, if not the very best we ever had. A large crowd was out and picture shows, airdome and the opera house did a big business. C. A. Ball, of Francesville, was here a short time today. Francesville is busy, he reports.

Soap Bubbles

Now is the time to make soap bubbles and children will while away many happy mornings doing so. Fill a quart bottle full of distilled water and sift into it four-fifths of an ounce of ivory soap, which has been finely shaved. Allow this to dissolve, then shake and leave till all bubbles have disappeared. Add one third pint of glycerin and after thoroughly mixing the two pour into a basin and give each child a clean glass or clay pipe. Any mother can thus do her morning’s work better when she knows the children are harmlessly employed. The glycerin makes the bubbles very strong and they will soar longer than others.

Chocolate Sponge Cake

Cook to a sirup one and one-half cupfuls of sugar and five tablespoonfuls of boiling water. Separate, six eggs, beat whites ten minutes, then beat yolks very light, add and heat together five minutes. Add sirup, little at a time and beat all ten minutes. Add slowly two cupfule of pastry flour, pinch of salt, teaspoonful of vanilla, and two teaspoonfule of baking powder. Bake forty-five minutes in moderate oven. Do not look in oven for twenty minutes. Icing—Melt over teakettle two squares of bitter chocolate, add cupful of sugar and add boiling water, one tablespoonful at a time until dissolved, but do not add more than three tablespoonfuls. Spread on cake while icing is warm.

Devil’s Food Cake

Butter, one heaping teaspoon ; su> gar, one cup; beat to a good cream, then add yolks of two eggs. Cut up one-fourth bar of chocolate, put In saucepan, add one-half cup of cold water, let come to boll, then pour over above. Next add one and onehalf cups of flour' scant, with one teaspoon baking powder. Lastly add onehalf teaspoon scant baking soda to half cup boiling water, then add to above contents. The secret in making this cake is to have the batter thin. Take the whites of the two eggs for boiled icing.

Peeling Tomato

It Is unnecessary to scald tomatoes before the skins can be easily removed. To avoid this and also to economize in time, take the iced tomatoes and over the entire surface scrape the skin thoroughly with the edge of a knife. Care should be taken not to cut the tomato. This loosens the outer skin and makes it possible to peel without wasting any of the meat. The tomatoes are now ready to serve without having to wait for them to recool.

Nut Cookies

One and one-half cups of brown -sugar, one cup of butter, three eggs beaten separately, one teaspoon soda dissolved in a little boiling water, two and three-quarters cups flour, one pinch of salt, one teaspoonful of cinnamon, one-half teaspoon of cloves, one pound nuts and one pound raisins, dropped with teaspoon in buttered tins. These will keep a long time.

Never Fail White Cake

One and one-half cupfuls of sugar, one-half cupful of butter, creamed together; one cupful of sweet milk, added alternately with two cupfuls of flour sifted twice with two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one teaspoonful of vanilla or rose extract, lastly the stiffly beaten whites ot four eggs. Baks in a moderate even. Use any Mbm or frosting dattw.

Her Married Name

Mrs. Wardwell rocked uneasily, forth and back, on the hotel veranda. Mrs. Wardwell had not become an ntlmate member of the group as yet, for she had only arrived on the momng train; but already her antecedents, her Income and her mode and nanner of living had been investigatr »d by personally conducted inquiries, ill reports being, soon after, carefully letailed to those Interested. “She doesn’t seem to want to say nuch about herself,” whispered Mns. Dazey to her friend Mrs. Whippte; ind Mrs. Whipple obediently conveyed lie news to her friend, Mrs. Van 3tudd, that “there was somethingveil, a little queer, about Mrs. Wardveil’s life.” “I hear her husfiand is not all that te should be; some say he drinks, and jeats her.” “I shouldn’t wonder at It She looks scared to death all the time.” conttnled the first speaker; “she seems juite nice, too; but of course, one canlot be too careful.” Mrs. Wardwell rocked on, serenely unconscious of the unusual amount of jonversation she had afforded but to Decile Van Studd the whole affair was jnpleasant and unfair. She resolved to be very attentive to Mrs. Wardwell, ind went out at once to the desertedlooking veranda to get acquainted. From that day they became almost inseparable—a strange pair; the beautiful 19-year-old girl and the faded, sweet little woman of 40. “My Uncle Billie is coming home to-day,” announced Cecile one morning as they strolled together on the beach. “He’s the best chum I have, next to my father and an old dear he Is. All my life Uncle Billie has been doing nice things for me. You won’t mind him a bit I’ve written to him a great deal about you, and he says he is very anxious to meet this rival In my affections. We three will have a lovely time;” “I used to know a ‘Billie’ oncei” she said, absent-mindedly. Cecile looked at her curiously; then almost with reverence as she saw the expression in the little woman’s face. “She loves him still,” she thought, and pity filled her heart Why had she married the other man? As they came up the hotel path,'* strong, brown man rushed out and clasped the young girl In his arms. Then an unexpected tableau arrayed Itself before her eyes. As she turned to present her friend, they rushed at each other, hands outstretched. “Anne!” exclaimed the man, “who would have thought to find you here. I’ve looked over half the world for; you.” “This is my friend, Mrs. Wardwell, Uncle Billie, that I’ve been writing you about You sly man not to tell me you knew her.” As Anne’s face reddened, Unde Billie’s grew very pale. - * ■ “I beg pour pardon, I didn’t know\” he muttered lamely. Cecile chattered nonsensically to fill up the somewhat embarrassing pauses that occurred with disturbing frequency. Why, oh, why hadn’t she realized the truth and kept these two apart Why had she married the wrong man? How could anyone, who had known Uncle Billie, care for any other person? Looking slyly at his face, she knew that Mrs. Wardwell was not the only one who still cared. To Cecile, the situation was distressing, for she had adopted them both into her heart, and she wanted them to be happy.

Next day, Mrs. Wardwell would not go for their usual stroll, shutting herself up In lier room. Also, Uncle Billie went off by himself, a cigar gripped so tightly between his teeth that it almost divided In its effort so keep them apart. I Late in the afternoon, Cecile saw her friend go out the side door and* take the beach to the south. Soon after, she followed the same course. She was sure she would find her; friend, for they had a favorite resting place in this direction, in the shadow; of some giant rocks that piled themselves too high to be disturbed by the rush and roar of the ocean. As she drew near, the sound of sobbing came to her ears, and she could see the little woman rocking back and forth, in an agony of grief. “Mrs. Wardwell, dear Mrs. Wardwell, can’t I do something?” she crle<L “I cannot bear to see you like this."* “Oh, my dear, I’ve been so wicked,” said the poor woman. “I’m not mar-, ried, I never have been, and now F| never will be.” She stopped to wipeher eyes, and noticed the girl’s 100k 1 of astonishment. “I have a niece,” she explained, “a girl of 16, who is always twitting me about being an old maid, and I made up my mind that I would change my name and go somewhere for awhile;! just to escape the ridicule and that left-over feeling. But, oh, my dear, I can’t bear it, and now your Uncle Billie, he thinks I am married. Oh, my dear, I sent him away once, and now I have lost him again.” “Anne! ” Uncle Billie walked serenely out from behind the big boulder. “Anne, I have you now.” He laughed joyously, like a boy, tn his gladness. “I heard you say you were afraid you would lose me. You dare not send me away from you now.” Tenderly he opened his arms, and the sweet little old maid crept shyly into them; and as their lips met, Cecile walked away, unobserved and unwept—Miss Helen Gunnigon.

Notes and Comment

Of Interest to Women Readers

POCKET SUNSHADE. Fastens on Hats and Protects the Wearer from Sol’s Ra/S. If manufacturers of complexion creams ’ had known what a certain New Jersey man was doing recently they would doubtless have tried to buy him off. They had no inkling of his activities, however, until there was placed on the market a collapsible sunshade that leaves no excuse

Folds Up Like a Fan.

for persons who acquire sunburn or freckles. This sunshade is made of a strip of light plaited material, with fasteners on the ends to hold the strip together in circular form. When not in use the shade folds up like a fan into a small space and can be carried in the pocket without any inconvenience. To use the device it is placed around the crown of the hat, either derby or small straw, and resting on the brim, extends far outside it, protecting the wearer from the sun’s rays. For fishing trips or other outdoor excursions where people are exposed to the glaring sunlight, this pocket sunshade will be found a great convenience.

HEART-SHAPED PILLOWS.

Acceptable Gifts to All Sorts and Conditions of Women. Pillows of all shapes and sizes are always acceptable gifts to "all sorts and conditions" of women. Sometimes to men, also. Just at present the heart-shaped pillow is in high favor. It may be made of any size, but one that is from ten to fourteen inches across at the widest part is perhaps the most convenient size. The lobes of the heart fit snugly about the neck, and the head 'rests comfortably on the middle plumpness. These pillows may be covered with turkey red for hammocks, couches and for traveling. Even a small-sized one that takes hardly more room in packing than a large sponge will be found a boom for those who make long journeys by rail. It is just the thing to tuck behind one’s head in the big chair of the parlor car or the high backed seat of the sleeper. On shipboard it will be found equally convenient. For invalids, and for use in dainty sitting or dressing rooms, the cushion is best covered with plain satine matching the color of the room, with a slip made of lawn, sewed together from the point of the heart on both sides as far up as the widest part. The two flaps can then be buttoned together; five buttons are quite sufficient. The slips should be finished With a tiny ruffle of lawn. One that is hemstitched with an edge of Valenciennes, is exquisite, and is easily laundered even by an amateur. Sometimes a tiny monogram is worked jusi in the centre, or a single design ia embroidered on the edge, but the work should be exceedingly fine, as even embroidery will leave a mark on tender skin.
